Reviews
"Every Body is a sweet and whimsical story that reminds boys and girls that they are made just the way they are for a beautifully designed purpose. In a world of confusion, these words teach children the important truth that nothing about them is an accident. Every Body is uniquely and rightly designed by their perfect Creator--and that's something to celebrate!" --Sarah Walton, co-author of Hope When It Hurts and author of The Long Road Home "We need books like Every Body Wonderfully Made to help us ground our kids in the truth that our gender is a gift from God that can never change. Every family should get a copy of Every Body Wonderfully Made and use it to share God's good plan for boys and girls. This is a book I want my grandkids to read." --Marty Machowski, Family Pastor and author of God Made Boys and Girls, The Ology, and other gospel-rich resources for church and home. "Every Body Wonderfully Made would be a perfect addition to a Catholic preschool classroom, a homeschool family's health curriculum, a church lending library, and/or the bookshelf of any young Catholic child. With its appealing illustrations, kid-friendly text, and unapologetically Christian message, this is a book I recommend highly to anyone who reads with little ones." --Katie Fitzgerald, CatholicMom.com
"Every Body is a delightful, whimsical primer that invites children into an incarnational understanding of gender and the body. Each page celebrates the gift of the body as a sign of God's deep love for us." --Abigail Favale, author of The Genesis of Gender, Here I Am, and professor in the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame
